Helpmann nominated performer Trevor Ashley, known most recently for his performance as Edna Turnblad in Hairspray, channels the superb talents of cabaret's most idiosyncratic superstar, Liza Minnelli, in the charismatic hit drag show Liza (On an E) in the De Parel Spiegeltent from 10 to 16 February, 2013.

From her marriage to Australia's song-and-dance darling, Peter Allen, to her showbiz family and pill popping antics, plus some special appearances by her mother, Liza dishes the dirt on her extraordinary life like you've never seen her before. Witty banter is interspersed with all her greatest hits, including Cabaret, Maybe This Time and New York, New York, accompanied by a band.

This merciless impersonation by DIVA's 'Entertainer of the Year' will have you laughing, crying and screaming for more.

Ashley has had sell-out and return seasons across Australia with the critically acclaimed Liza (On an E), so come taste the wine... come hear the band... but most of all don't miss the opportunity to see Ashley in a performance of pure star quality.
